gulfstream g500
Market Report

 Let's begin with the overall market summary. The G500 remains one of the most desirable aircraft in the large cabin segment.  Its combination of range, advanced flight controls, cabin technology, and efficiency continues to drive strong buyer interest. There are currently 175 aircraft in operation, with just eight aircraft available for sale.  That represents 4.5% of the total fleet, and of those eight, six are on exclusive listings, which tells us that most sellers are taking a disciplined, structured approach to bringing their aircraft to the market.  At under 5% of availability, this is a low supply and clearly supportive of prices. and stability. Looking at the past 12 months, the inventory levels have remained tight and consistent.  We've not seen any meaningful surge in listings, and supply continues to stay well within historical norms for a next generation large cabin aircraft.  Pre-owned asking prices are up approximately 10% compared to March of 2025. That is meaningful appreciation in a pre-owned segment and reflects continued demand for late-model, low-time aircraft.  Limited availability combined with OEM delivery backlog is helping sustain upward pricing pressure. Over the past 12 months, the time to sell has dropped by over 65%.  Over the past year, we have seen a decline in 43 retail sales, 28 of which were new aircraft deliveries.  That level of transactional activity is significant for a fleet of this size and demonstrates strong absorption. Aircraft that are properly priced and well-represented continue to transact efficiently.  When we analyze supply versus demand, the G500 market is firmly positioned in seller territory.  Inventory remains limited relative to transaction volume, and the current 5.6-month absorption rate supports continued pricing strength.   In summary, the G500 market is strong, supply remains limited, pricing has appreciated year-over-year, and the retail transaction activity is very healthy.  OEM backlog continues to help prop up pre-owned G500 values and reinforces the aircraft's position in the large cabin segment. The backlog across the entire Gulfstream product line continues to influence the pre-owned market, as buyers facing extended delivery positions are turning to available aircraft today. The result is sustained demand pressure with constrained supply, which creates a favorable dynamic for current owners. Overall, we rate the current G500 market demand at an A.
